Hey guys!

I'm new here, forgive me if this topic has been posted before, but the search function seems defunct / not working.

I have been a believer in the flat earth probably since I was a little kid and no one could really explain to me why we don't fly off if we are going so fast.

I would love to go on an expedition to Antartica!

Has anyone submitted a request to the state department to go on a expedition?

While I do believe that the governments of the world, and the powers that keep them in place, do not want commoners like us to go there, find interesting shit and tell others. I don't think a request would be denied unless there were outlandish claims / statements made in the request for the expedition permit.

I imagine it would be possible to even crowd fund this expedition and get a US university to take some of our researchers if we paid the way for their researches as guides.

for example this failed crowd funded proposal

I have enough independent wealth almost to do this my self, but wouldn't know where to start in terms of buying vehicles and storing fuel that would last long enough to find whatever is beyond what we are allowed to know.

I would be interested to see if this had been discussed or attempted before?
